There’s plenty evolving restaurant-wise along 14th Street, between Stephen Starr’sParc Deux build-out, a still-unnamed Southeast Asian spot from Mark Kuller (Proof,Estadio), and eight Italian eateries in the works. So it’s nice to see that one Logan area restaurant’s opening is imminent: Drafting Table, slated to debut October 1 in the former ACKC space.

You’ll recognize ownerAaron Gordonfrom other culinary ventures, including Red Velvet Cupcakery, Tangysweet, and Rabbit, though there are no cupcakes or fro-yo on the menu. ChefCiji Wagner, who led kitchen operations at Red Velvet and Rabbit, has switched focus from devil’s food to plotting an eclectic menu that offers an international spectrum of comfort items. Look for anything from a charcuterie plate to fried chicken with pickles andkayatoast, a Singaporean specialty involving toast spread with house-made coconut jam and dipped in a runny fried egg. There’s also the requisite bar burger, here a mix of slow-cooked brisket and ground chuck topped with crispy blue cheese and bacon-onion jam. (Note for the late-night crowd: This could be particularly tasty just before midnight, which is how late the kitchen stays open most evenings.) For dessert, we’ll be trying the chocolate pudding and a griddled sticky bun à la mode, drizzled with rum-caramel sauce.

Like many other 14th Street spots, Drafting Table is set up to operate as a watering hole as much as a sit-down restaurant. Gordon’s childhood friend and fellow Washington nativeAndrew Christenberryis behind the design, which features the namesake vintage drafting tables and chairs, as well as custom-built communal high-top tables and a 22-seat wood-paneled bar. “Draft” also alludes to the beer flowing from 15 taps dispensing a global range of brews, like Guinness, Sapporo, Red Stripe, and Anchor Steam. Consulting on wines and classic cocktails isBrian Murphy, formerly of Jaleo and Black’s Bar & Kitchen.

Once the restaurant is up and running, look for brunch to start and possibly breakfast and lunch further down the line.
